LCP II 22 LR First Time

[SW351C]

Well I bought this little gun a while back and just got around to shooting it. It took a little while to get use to loading the magazines. The problem with loading them is there is there is no problem. Trying to muscle the rounds in just causes problems. Using just a little finesse along with the supplied loading tool they load easy. I painted my front sight orange soon out of the box. I bought 2 extra mags when I got the gun. I bought the gun with a uneasy feeling of cheapness that after handling for a while at home went away. At the range I put in the first mag and fired 2 shots then a loading failure on the third. I thought oh boy here we go but the next 147 rounds wet off like clockwork. I’m okay with the trigger weight and reset. I shot at 7 yds. as I was at a indoor range and that is their closest allowed. I was grouping 1 1/2” high at 7 yards. slow fire and about 1” low fast fire. Horizontal the shots were about 1/2” to the left. Overall I am pleased with this guns operation and performance. One has to decide for themselves what this guns use is for. For me right now it’s just a fun gun.

I really like ours. Wife loves it and shoots it better than I do.

Like you, I had a couple hiccups in the first two mags and has been 100% since.

I've had my little LCP 22 for 6 months now, it goes to the range with me every time. I am very happy with mine, it replaced my Bobcat immediately. The first time out I had the same thoughts...wasn't sure what I'd gotten into, but it's been a pleasure. It is an accurate little bugger. Slow firing, I can shoot it as well as my bigger 22s!

One thing of note, mine will not handle CCI Stingers or Velocitors well. They might be a little too powerful, those rounds will cause my slide lock to engage. It only happens with hyper velocity ammo.
